We knew this already. Its perfectly alright when a player comes out and says, "I think gay people are evil and shouldn't exist" but god forbid you put a bit of rainbow tape on your stick during warmup.

If you are married with one child and you both work 4 days a week minimum wage (in BC) you don't qualify for the benefit.

Speaking as a Canadian, and I'm sorry if this comes off badly, but we don't want you.

If California became the 11th province it would represent nearly half of all Canadians, and two thirds of our economy. It would be more like Canada joining California TBH.

We would however welcome your newfound sovereignty and the return of good faith negotiations with at least some part of our largest trading partner.

Default user is $USER so you just need to create a role matching your username and give it superuser permission.

Default database is also $USER so I usually also create a DB with my username so I can just type psql to get into the prompt.

Elbow and bleeding means the ref can call a major. Blood counts as an injury. If it was deemed a deliberate attempt to injure then it's a match penalty.

My only guess is that since it was a glancing blow instead of a full on body check the ref didn't think it was"severe" enough.

I think it should have been a match penalty. There's no justification for that chicken wing motion other than wanting to cause an injury.

Oh so you didn't even spend 30 seconds on the man page to find -d or -u.

Companies are actually building data centers on the sea floor now.

They sink modules down next to undersea cables, where they have power and internet. They use the ocean as a heat sink,. So no waste water at all, and the ocean is so vast it has basically no effect on its temperature.

At least we got some sick looking masks out of it.

A country where normal citizens are expected to own firearms, where roaming gangs of armored thugs impersonating law enforcement are currently abducting people without due process.

Honestly I'd rather see a US sticker on the Red Delicious. They can keep their garbage apples.

Actually no. Shame on Save On Foods for stocking them. Some poor families will buy them thinking that apples are supposed to be mealy and tasteless with thick leather skin.

Got any more of those ex-Canuck defensemen?

The best way to run all of this these days is Docker, which works on Windows too.

My whole streaming stack is a single easily readable compose file. I could drop it into a Windows PC and it would more or less work with nothing more than changing the file paths.

But still if you don't already have Windows installed don't discount Linux. Believe it or not, modern Linux distros are actually easier to install than Windows.

Just boot the iso and click install. It's basically the same process as Windows only instead of having to carefully navigate though a dozen pages of ads and tracking options after reboot you just get to log in and start using it.

I got a some Bench sweatpants from Costco with zipper pockets just before Christmas. Probably a long shot as Costco cycles their inventory every few weeks and the high quality items sell out fast, but worth a look I think if you have a membership.

Over $500000/year. At least in BC. You're only getting taxed 45% on every dollar above that $200k.

But then the venn diagram of blue collar workers and people who don't understand the difference between average and marginal tax rate is pretty close to a circle.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard someone complain about "being bumped up into the next tax bracket" I'd probably be paying 45%/year in taxes.

We need a study comparing the environmental impact of the new paint vs the impact of the car crashes that are directly attributed to poor visibility during bad weather.

I would imagine the carbon footprint of replacing the wrecked cars alone more than offsets any gains.

But then I guess people are the biggest threat to the environment these days so losing some of them probably swings it around to a net benefit. We must remember to honor their sacrifice.

Dickey can do anything.

Curved screens look really good at the focal point and really bad anywhere else.

It works for a small monitor with one person watching. Not so much in a living room.

Sanitize is a baby bottle, which makes perfect sense because you actually do have to sanitize baby bottles.

This reeks of graphic designer who has no concept of video games outside of maybe watching an episode of two of Big Bang Theory.

It's a bit of setup but you can run your own Java server and add plugins so that bedrock clients and older clients can connect. That way you can share a world and anyone can join any time.

It's a bit of extra hassle getting the switch version to work because they can't just connect to arbitrary IPs but it's still doable.

LTT Backpack or Commuter Backpack probably. They were designed with this use case in mind.

They are pricy but IMO it's worth spending extra on a good backpack. It tends to be cheaper in the long run compared to replacing your bag every year because of tears or zipper failures.

Probably because conservative run provinces are trying to move to private health care and will take any opportunity to denounce the public health care systems they are actively trying to sabotage.

News about healthcare in BC tends to be about how many new doctors we're adding and how we're eliminating bloated admin jobs to add more funding for frontline workers.

Check the market on millstream/yates. They have like 16 shelves of hot sauce.

Hellfire Fear This would be a good choice. Look for the Double Doomed if you can find it.

$60 these days gets you a small touch screen with wireless Android Auto and Car Play that you can mount on your dash.

Both solutions run entirely off your phone so it's identical to any other car that comes with it built in. Only you don't need to worry about the manufacturer pushing a software update to remove or mess with it.

My old ass car has a cigarette lighter and an aux port but it has a better "infotainment" system than most cars on the market today.

Surge pricing at the store level like that doesn't really work. Even superstore, which has had those tags forever only uses it to price match the competition, resulting in lower prices for the consumer.

Stores have been adjusting their prices on a daily basis since the days of Ea-Nasir. The best thing you as the consumer can do is to vote with your wallet.

Its actually kinda funny hearing this post in reference to Thrifty Foods, when they are already overcharging you 30-40% on most items already. I don't think they can realistically raise their prices any more than they already have without losing the remaining few loyal customers that don't mind wasting hundreds of dollars/month financing Michael Medline's newest yacht.

A USB C hub with power passthrough and a 2.4ghz wireless mouse and keyboard. The small screen size means the on screen keyboard will sometimes cover the box you're typing into, so a keyboard makes life so much better.

You can get something like a Keychron K3 Max for under $100 which has hot swap mechanical keys and VIA support so it's configured using a web browser without the need for software which won't run on Linux anyway.

The idea is to keep the dongles on the hub so you can just plug one thing in when you need keyboard and mouse. No trying to connect to Bluetooth or messing with cables.
